Science, pls!!

examine the scenario.

a circuit is made up of a battery, wires, and two light bulbs. there are multiple pathways for the current to go through the circuit.

which option most accurately identifies the type of circuit described?

a. it is a series circuit because there are multiple light bulbs in the circuit.
b. it is a series circuit because there are multiple pathways for the current to flow.
c. it is a parallel circuit because there are multiple light bulbs in the circuit.
d. it is a parallel circuit because there are multiple pathways for the current to flow.

Answer: D

It is a parallel circuit because there are multiple pathways for the current to flow.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know it is already a parallel circuit because series circuits only have one single path for electrons, while parallel circuits have multiple paths. That leaves us down to two answers , and the reason would NOT be because of multiple light bulbs, it is because of the multiple paths.
